The AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT delivers better price-to-performance than competing GeForce cards and 4 GB more memory than the RTX 5070. The Radeon RX 9070 XT Gaming OC 16G is the more affordable of Gigabyte’s two RX 9070 XT models. While it doesn’t match premium variants in overall performance, it offers more capable power delivery, a higher power limit for factory overclocking, and greater overclocking headroom than base models.
Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition, BIOS Performance
For completeness, here’s another set of results from the Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition benchmark with Extreme settings at a resolution of 3840 × 2160 pixels.
The average GPU clock speed hovered around 2735 MHz.
In terms of power consumption, the card consistently stays near the power limit.
Temperatures are better than in the previous test.
However, the fans are again running at nearly 2000 RPM.

I simply love your review format, now back to these cards…
In this day and age is shameful that (both Ngreedia and Amd) charge this much for this level of performance but here we are. I won’t buy one until the price comes down a lot.
Really makes me think about switching to a console or a Steam deck if they keep it up.
In my opinion you really need to introduce an UE5 game in your reviews just to see how bad performance is in those.
Robocop Rogue City, Stalker 2, Black myth Wukong etc.
Thanks for your work, keep it up.
Thanks. I am already testing Black Myth: Wukong and Satisfactory, I just need to retest some cards to add charts. More games will follow as soon as I will have time to play them for a few hours and find optimal locations for testing.
I am able to test Stalker 2, Robocop, Hogwarts Legacy, Frostpunk 2, Fornite, God of War Ragnarok, Gray Zone: Warfare and some other games, the only thing I don’t have is the time to play it and prepare for testing. :(.
When it comes to performance, I assume that developers already rely on TSR/FSR/DLSS and this shift is now irreversible.
